I don't think so. Perhaps the helmets touch at some point, but he didn't hit him in the helmet with his own helmet. He hit him with his shoulder. Great tackle.

He led with the helmet, the helmet went in before the shoulder and it was above the neck. There is no other possible way for a human being to physically do this. It wasn't a direct hit, which is great, but he led with the helmet above the shoulders.

How can a guy lower his shoulder without lowering his head at the same time?

You can see on that angle that the helmets hit first, even if not a direct hit.

That's the problem with the helmet to helmet contact rules in the NFL... you have to lead with your head so your shoulder can follow.

What the NFL wants players to do is hit below the next and above the knees.

And to be honest, that is exactly what form tackling is. When someone says that it was a great tackle by Don Jones, they don't know anything about tackling. That wasn't a great tackle, it was actually poor form.

It was a great hit though and a big time play, but if you go against a strong running back like that... or a tight end... you're just going to bounce off.

That's the type of play the NFL is trying to avoid.

This is incorrect. You might need glasses. Just because a defender's helmet touches the body of a player it isn't "leading" with the helmet. Leading with the helmet is where the crown (part right above the facemask) is the first to impact the other player. This simply doesn't happen in the clips I've seen.
